Thornico owner Christian Stadil is making quite a name for himself on Danish television.

Stadil, whose company owns multipurpose operator Thorco Projects, is on a panel of five investors who choose whether to become business partners with contestants on Lovens Hule (Lions’ Den).

The ­reality show is the ­Danish version of Dragons’ Den in the UK and Shark Tank in the US, in which start-up businesses pitch ideas in the hope of investment.
